[sudo-discuss] Opening the Harry Potter closet

Last night I took the door to the Harry Potter closet off its hinges. I started prying nails off the plywood on the other side as well. If you had anything stored in there under the false illusion of security, you might want to move it someplace else. Should I have asked for consensus before doing this? I was high on adrenaline last night and I'm feeling some remorse now. If people want me to put it back I will. But I do really want to open up that area by taking all the walls off and clearing out the (mostly) junk. I think it's primarily a trap for rats, dust, cobwebs, etc. I also want to replace the staircase with a smaller one rotated 90° to free up space for a floor drain, sink fixtures & countertop, and to make the upcoming flooring project less complicated in that area. Things that need secure storage could go in the server area, in personal lockers, or Omni storage where appropriate. Eventually I'd like us to build a 3-story pallet rack structure with a new common storage area. :) PS big thanks to Null, Ian and the friendly teenager whose name I forgot, for clearing out the area under the staircase.
